The Egyptian Museum of Turin hosts the Onde concert SAX APPEAL: CLASSICI E COLONNE SONORE on 18 October 2026. The programme begins at 11am in the Gallery of the Sekhmet, bringing a Sunday music event to one of the museum's named galleries in Turin, Italy.
Onde brings a Sunday concert to the Egyptian Museum
The October programme is part of Onde, a 2026 series of twelve Sunday morning concerts. The series places music in the Gallery of the Sekhmet, within the Gallery of the Kings, and ranges from baroque and jazz to contemporary music and encounters between Eastern and Western traditions.
The 18 October concert is organised by the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory of Turin. The listed performers are Emma Rotatori on soprano saxophone, Stefano Denaro on alto saxophone, Fabian Gherca on tenor saxophone and Valeria Bussacchini on baritone saxophone. The programme title is SAX APPEAL: CLASSICI E COLONNE SONORE, and the published repertoire includes music by Rossini, Singelee, Bernstein, Morricone and Matitia. The museum programme notice gives the date, venue and performers.
The Gallery of the Sekhmet frames the October programme
The venue connects the concert with the museum's display areas rather than treating it as a separate city event. The Gallery of the Sekhmet is identified as part of the Gallery of the Kings, so the October performance will take place within the institution's Egyptian collections.
The museum presents itself as a place covering 4,000 years of Egyptian history, archaeology and art. Its online overview also lists the permanent exhibition Materials. The Shape of Time, alongside collections and research covering papyri, digital epigraphy, human remains and archaeological missions. The same overview records an 1,847 cm papyrus, 24 human mummies, 17 animal mummies and the 5-tonne statue of Sethy II. These details show why the concert's setting matters: the programme is placed inside a museum whose galleries and collection remain central to the visit. The museum's collection overview gives these figures and named areas.
